Whitespace issue around links #369

Closed clumma closed 9 years ago

clumma commented 11 years ago

Take a look at this blog post http://blog.23andme.com/23andme-research/mito-mightily-disappoints-autism-researchers/

and this one http://economicsone.com/2013/07/18/the-apple-e-book-price-fixing-case-a-teaching-moment/

Now look at them in Newsblur. Whether I use the Feed or Text view, I get weird spacing issues around the links. See the link on "unable" in the first story, for example. The Feed view wrongly shows the space before the word as part of the link. In the Text view there is no space at all before "unable".

In the second story, the link "full opinion" looks fine in Text view but has no spaces around it in Feed view. The other link (" e-book prize-fixing case") is fine in both views.

I see this a lot on Newsblur. I haven't seen it in other RSS readers.

Yeah, this is a known issue, but I don't always have the time to fix it. Is it consistent with certain feeds? Can you post the newsblur.com site urls of feeds that always do it?

clumma commented 11 years ago

I gave URLs above. Those were consistently doing it. Not sure what you mean by newsblur.com URLs. Getting the content display dialed seems pretty important to me (paid customer).

samuelclay commented 11 years ago

What's the URL of newsblur.com when you open the site?

clumma commented 11 years ago

Uh, I get something like this

http://newsblur.com/site/201006/the-23andme-blog

when I look at the 23andMe blog, for example.

This was fixed I believe sometime in 2014.
